Joey Barton to appear in Morrissey's new music video

Barton, who is currently serving a 13-month ban from football for breaching FA betting rules, revealed on talkSPORT that he would be making a cameo appearance. Playwright and screenwriter Alan Bennett will produce the video.

“I’ve been asked to be in a music video this afternoon [on Monday] for Morrissey,” he announced. “It’s with Alan Bennett, I think.”

Barton then posted a photo on Instagram later of himself and 'Moz' in conversation.

The 35-year-old is a keen fan of the former Smiths star, and met the singer at Glastonbury festival in 2011.
